Exercise #389: Ten Words
Posted 10/8/10

Use these ten words in your SUB:

party
annual
puzzle
friends
laughter
sunset
prandial
directions
invitation
beverage

Do your best to make your piece tell a story. "Extra credit" for using the words in the order given and/or doing this exercise in 75 words or less.

Critiquers, with our new critique guidelines this one will be more difficult as authors tend to run short on their SUBs. Likely the best approach to these is the Wildacres Seven Steps Technique.
